THE FIELD HOUSE AT CHELSEA PIERS ANNOUNCES
THREE NEW PROGRAMS FOR SPRING

The Field House at Chelsea Piers, 80,000 square feet of fun, is offering three new programs for kids this spring semester-Danza e Musica, teaching the basics of ballet and modern dance, a Saturday morning Arts and Crafts class, and Mommy & Me Ballet.

On February 6, Italian television, theatre, and dance personality Ornella Fada will begin Danza e Musica, a fun and creative class that teaches children the basics of ballet and modern dance. In this delightful class, children play character roles, sing and dance on sets they design and create themselves. Through the imaginative use of songs, poems, stories, games, dramatic arts and movement, children will also develop comprehension and appreciation of basic Italian vocabulary in a festive atmosphere.

Beginning February 3, Arts and Crafts taught by Debroah Johanson, will allow children's imagination to soar to new and exciting heights as they create puppets, sponge flowers, windmills, sun mobiles, greeting cards, scratch art and more! Spaces are limited. Register your child now for this fun and educational 16-week Saturday morning program for the Spring Semester.

Mommy & Me Ballet, taught by Courtney Kern, is created especially for children ages 24-36 months and their parents or caregivers. The session began on January 22, 2001 but registrations will be accepted through the twelfth week of classes. Mommy & Me Ballet teaches children movement, coordination and understanding of basic rhythmic patterns.
